Big is better. I appreciate the pictures this size. Usually I can't authenticate bags with Photobucket pictures because I can't see them well enough. If I'm reading it correctly, you can add the station bag to the dumpster as well. It looks like it says E5-A5130. I don't think they would make a stamping mistake like that. You can wait for confirmation if you'd like.

That's what I was thinking, but wanted to double check. Thanks for the quick reply.

You're welcome. We have seen station bags with an A factory code even though A was never supposed to be used, so I don't think that would be a problem, but I don't think I have ever seen an authentic bag with the dash in the wrong place. When I saw the first picture of it, I thought there was something off about it. The leather doesn't have the right texture, I don't think.

Its not smooth, like other station bags I've seen. I think I picked up some bad bags this weekend :( Just when I think I am getting better at identifying fakes, I fall for another. I really appreciate all of your help!

I'm sorry for taking over this page, I was only able to do a few pictures per listing. Again, I am sorry the pictures are coming out so so big!

This one looks ok - Brighton Bag from around 1992, style 9895.

I agree with Whateve, BB and others about the "new" Photobucket. It BITES. We need photos that preferably can be enlarged, and PB seems to have removed that. Stupid stupid decision.

And my ancient eyes are grateful for the large photos!

I think perhaps my request was buried in the "bean bag" discussion. ;) I hope someone can authenticate this for me.

Thanks!

If no one recognises it then you may not get an answer. I don't have a record of that number but there are one or two styles with the same details made at the same time, and the details look ok, so it's probably good.
